deep v's are made of pbr and ironic t shirts.
that was sadly the most creative thing i could think of. |
Deep V's are made of awesome.
|
I ride on everything from vintage steel Dunlop wheels to Vueltas to Sun Rhyno Lites.
My new wheelset for my road bike is going to use Mavic Open Pros and if I can find them for a decent price want to lace them to some Suntour Superbe track hubs. |
22s

velocity's website left out what they were made of or at least i had yet to find the info hahahah does anyone know if they are aluminum?
|
google search says: Hollow core aluminum
|
That's one of those things you should just stop and think about for two seconds before asking
Too light to be made of steel, too heavy to be magnesium, too metallic to be carbon fiber..... |

The pink ones are made of sugar and spice and everything nice. The blue ones are made of snips and snails and puppy dog tails.
|
any modern rim that is metal (as opposed to carbon) is going to be aluminum, with the exception of the worst wal-mart has to offer
|
aluminum Thanks muckymucky i need to try googling that question i suppose hahah. BUT deep v's are made of slugs and snails and panties and bows
|
the hopes and dreams of all the hipsters.
|
tubular deep v's and high flange dura ace hubs are made of _ _ _ _. mystery metal !
|
Whatever it is it's not balanced.
Video of my un balanced rim: http://www.flickr.com/photos/carleton_hall/3571376482/ On a similar note. The Suntour Superbe hubs are so smooth, so sensitive that only a couple of grams can send it swinging. |
minotaur horns.......sha-derrr

DUH! The gold ones are mad of real gold simply because it never specifies otherwise...

Technically, you cannot comment on the rim's distribution of mass unless you are only dealing with that mass. You also have spokes, nipples, hopefully spoke prep on the spoke threads, a hub, a tire, and a tube. You are demonstrating bad science.
Mr. Wizard didn't teach me how to use any fancy scienty tools. We just learned with what we had laying around. Check this: I left 3 of the magnets on while at the track today. You know what? No wobble. :D |
They're made of unobtanium, although this one appears to have the measles:

I'm not a scientist. I just know at 35 MPH that sumb*tch moves around and it's not fun.

Neat. You still cannot comment on the distribution of the mass of the rim.
